Ileostomy appliance and method for implanting the same

摘要

An ileostomy appliance including a support housing having an attachment plate and elongated central member extending substantially perpendicular therefrom wherein the support housing has an aperture extending through the attachment plate and axially through the elongated central member forming a passageway therethrough with a preshaped collapsible member having a fluid-tight outer surface and an interior cavity which may be filled with a resilient foam material, being positioned around and in fluid-tight sealing engagement with the exterior surface of the elogated central member and with the preshaped collapsible member spaced a predetermined distance from the attachment plate and wherein the end of the preshaped collapsible member which is adjacent the opening of the elongated central member is attached to the opening in the preshaped collapsible member to provide an unobstructed opening of the elongated central member through the preshaped collapsible member and including means for withdrawing fluid from the interior cavity of the preshaped collapsible member to a reduced or negative pressure therein and to enable ambient atmospheric pressure to collapse said preshaped collapsible member to reduce the geometrical dimension thereof and for enabling fluid to be drawn into the interior cavity at ambient atmospheric pressure to expand the preshaped collapsible member back to its original shape and size is shown. A method for implanting an ileostomy closure and drainage appliance in a user is also shown.
